    I could'nt resist laughing when I read thet our great revolutionary loved cute 'lil puppies. Now, whou wouldn't? But I cant' get the picture out of my head, where Che's playing with a little wobbly-tailed doggy woggy when the other guerrillas are like "Che, c'mon, we're in the middle of the battle here!"
    "But just look at the witl' bowwie!"
    *childlike barking from Che's mouth*

    I like puppies, too. But I prefer kittens.

    According to Andersen, Che once ordered a puppy to be strangled coz it kept barking.

    I heard that he had one when he was young and when it died he held a funeral for it with all his friends.

    Che was so moved by the fact that they had to kill the puppy because it insisted on following them into combat that he released an article about Revolutionary Attitude in I think "Granma" some years later called "The murdered puppy".

    Dogs rule, no doubt.

    Once I read a detailed description about that. And how depressed Che later was. That in the eyes of every other dog he saw the reproach of the killed dog.

    A story I found when searching for the story of the puppy:

    Che, who loved puppies, once had to order the strangling of a puppy who latched onto his guerrilla column on an ambush, because the puppy’s barks were betraying the hiding place of the guerrillas and would have resulted in them being wiped out. Che obviously felt so lacerated by the experience that he confessed the incident in a short story. The other day in Talequan, Northern Afghanistan, the Taliban herded the population into the main town square. Then they paraded a number of dogs, on whose foreheads had been stenciled the names of their enemies - including King Zahir Shah and George W. Bush. They poured petrol on the dogs and burnt them alive. It was meant as a warning, said eyewitnesses (identities given in the newsreport) who arrived at a refugee camp. (The Telegraph Group, London/The Island Tues 2nd Oct, p6). When the Taliban took power in 1995, they dragged former Afghan ruler and Communist Najibullah out of the UN compound in which he was sheltered in accordance with the negotiated settlement, castrated him while alive, dragged him through the streets tied to a jeep and finally hanged him in public. Last year, a report in France’s Le Point quoted an LTTE cadre code-named Marianna, as disclosing that captive Sri Lankan soldiers are bled to death. The report went uncontradicted by the Tigers. This is barbarism of a very Dark Age.

    OK D Day now THAT gave me the willies.

    I also heard that during the Iranian revolution that counter revolutionaries who were healthy were executed by being blood-transfusioned to death, in other words their blood was all extracted for medical use.

    Separate issue: I have read in several places that during the old British campaign in Afghanistan (like in the 1800's) the Brits were more afraid of being captured by Afghan women than men because of their extreme cruelty. Any tips on a graphic source of detail on this? It would probably be a British book or something.

    Dogs are cool and all good people love them, so Che of course had to love dogs. Cats, on the other hand are satan. Also, while we're on the subject of dogs, mine won't stop barking even though I've yelled at him in 2 different languages and let him out. Any thoughts?

    I like to see animals in their natural habitat + I move about a lot.
    Man's dearest possession is life, and since it is given to him to live but once.He must so live that dying he can say, all my life and all my strength have been given to the greatest cause in the world, the liberation of mankind
    Ostrovski

    Muriel Spark:

    If I had my life to live over again I should form the habit of nightly composing myself to thoughts of death. I would practice, as it were, the remembrance of death. There is no other practice which so intensifies life. Death, when it approaches, ought not to take one by surprise. It should be part of the full expectancy of life. Without an ever-present sense of death life is insipid. You might as well live on the whites of eggs.

    Well, they were going to die anyway. At least this way they ended up helping people.

    Yeah, but you know what that feels like, when your blood is just draining out of you? You have this slow, painless yet very fatal feeling, like the shadow of death is coming over you.

    At least if you were killed painfully you could look forward to death to get rid of the damn pain.

    Ya... i remember reading that Che couldnt resist a dog. and that once after the revolution he was staying in a hotel in havana and a reporter or somebody was coming to his room to interview him or something and it was full of stray dogs that Che had found. it kinda shows his human side...
